Chapter 386 [Immortal Platform]
Spiritual cranes hover around, with jade pavilions standing amidst the cloud-covered jade mountains and seas of mist. Lavish beams and jade buildings line up, within the massive array, which is surrounded by radiance. Under the guidance of spells, Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from all directions continuously floods in, converging here.
Within the sea of clouds and mist, a jade mountain rises in mid-air. From the foot of the mountain to the peak, an enormous staircase, as if carved by the mighty power of Heaven and Earth, extends upwards.
Each step of this staircase is made of jade, with light rippling underneath, and the brilliance of the array flows ceaselessly at their feet.
This staircase is precisely eighty-eight meters wide, and from the foot to the peak, there are exactly 3,600 steps, subtly corresponding to the number of the Celestial Doctrines.
This jade stairway, referred to as the "Road to Heaven" by cultivators in the Domain Realm!
On both sides of the stairway, palatial buildings are scattered like stars surrounding the moon, guarding the top of the jade mountain where a magnificent palace sits!
This palace is even more resplendent and magnificent, as if it has gathered all the treasures and rare objects of the world, adorning the grand hall outside! Under the sunlight, brilliance shines and creates a flowing glow of treasure!
Gu Qingyi is at this moment ascending slowly from the foot of the mountain, now reaching midway up the mountain.
She paused on the left side of this "Road to Heaven" jade stairway. Not far from her, midway up the mountain, is a continuous stretch of palace Sword Masters, with one black iron tower standing tall, faintly exuding some Evil Qi.
Gu Qingyi, dressed in battle attire and wearing a set of silver general’s armor, with a dark red cloak draped over her shoulders, appears even more valiant and extraordinary with her tall figure. Her long hair is tied high, and she holds a sharp blade sheathed in Jiao dragon skin.
At this moment, Gu Qingyi carries a touch of deep contemplation on her face, standing silently by the jade stairway, quietly awaiting something, while glancing down the mountain. On both sides of the jade stairway, from the mountain’s midpoint downwards, are still buildings and halls, with clouds and mist swirling around, and she can vaguely see Immortal Officials clad in jade robes moving about.
Not far from Gu Qingyi’s side, several warriors clad in golden armor, appearing extraordinarily imposing, stand around holding golden melon-shaped weapons.
Gu Qingyi narrowed her eyes, gazing for a moment, then withdrew her gaze, yet noticed the few golden armored warriors behind her. She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.
Such ostentatious armor, yet even more dazzling than the attire of a real General like herself who fights and risks her life on the Town Platform’s front lines.
Not just dazzling, but exuding sheer nobility.
This is no longer an ordinary warrior; it’s clearly just...
She suddenly recalled a term she once saw on television at Chen Yan’s home.
Honor guard.
Thinking of this, the Chief Town General of Snow Cliff Pass couldn’t help but frown.
She knew that these golden armored warriors behind her, with their brilliantly crafted armor and ceremonial golden melon weapons, were practically useless in actual combat.
But their cost is extraordinary.
A set of golden armor coupled with a long-handled golden melon carries a price enough to equip a whole squad of Thunder Cavalry at Snow Cliff Pass.
And there are as many as 3,600 of these golden armored warriors here!
These golden armored warriors never venture out, nor do they need to fight on the battlefield. Their sole responsibility is to "guard"—to guard the Domain Realm’s most central power hub, the Immortal Platform!
However, it’s quite laughable.
The Immortal Platform is teeming with Great Power cultivators, so there is no need for these golden armored warriors’ token presence as "protection", just elaborate mascots expensively crafted.
While such thoughts flowed through her mind, Gu Qingyi’s ears subtly twitched as she heard the sound of fluttering robes behind her.
She immediately turned around to see a towering, even bulky figure striding over.
With long sleeves billowing, this person resembled a floating, mobile meat mountain.
However, upon seeing the vibrant immortal garments this person was wearing, Gu Qingyi sighed inwardly but still pressed her lips and stood respectfully, hands cupped in salute.
"Are you the Town General of Snow Cliff Pass?" the person spoke, their voice hearty and full, brimming with energy.
"Town General Gu Qingyi of Snow Cliff Pass, has met the superior."
"No need for formalities," the rotund figure, dressed in the colorful robes of an Immortal Official, laughed heartily while approaching and gently propping up the saluting Gu Qingyi, pretending to be kind, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, we have known each other for quite some time already. Years ago, when I was ordered to patrol the border, I visited the Prison Suppression Platform and met you there; the Phoenix of the Gu Family is indeed renowned for your feats at the Prison Suppression Platform."
Gu Qingyi sighed inwardly but remained cautious in her demeanor, "It’s an honor that the superior still remembers this General, it’s been years, yet the superior remains as distinguished."
Though she spoke thus, her heart held disbelief.
This fellow, indeed, she had seen once at the Prison Suppression Platform, when he was an emissary sent by the Immortal Platform to patrol and reward the troops.
Though it was a brief encounter years ago, she vaguely remembered that fellow wasn’t this plump back then. He used to be a military general, dressed in military armor, and just left the front lines to assume a role at the Immortal Platform shortly before visiting. He still retained some bold and martial vigor.
However, seeing him today, in just a few years, he has become as round as a ball, with no trace of his former martial spirit, just an Immortal Official of the Immortal Platform with a grease-shining face.
